So if I offer the new guest as I always do to join me with tea or coffee (as a short polite get to know each other) surely that's not offering food?one guest looked forward to a quiet camomile tea with me every night that we were both home .....I presume it all plain old common sense
I don't put that on "what I offer" it's organic
but a lot of you have given me food for thought no pun intended. What if my guest was dairy intolerant or similar and the milk in my fridge could actually be harmful bearing in mind I have never had an English guest yet. It seems to break the awkward ice
